I knew that losing 6 pounds in 1 week would be too much for me too do; it would also be unhealthy. So because I didn't want to make my goal to difficult to reach, I gave myself 1 month to accomplish the goal. And then I made smaller checkpoints so that my end goal would be much easier to reach. Therefore, I believe my goal is attainable.

To measure my progress in losing 6 pounds, I will see if I lost 1.5 by the end of the first week of April. Then from every week then on I will see if I lost an additional 1.5 pounds. This will help me stay on track and if I fall out of line, I will be able to fix it before it is to late. I gave myself an additional week before the first checkpoint, because I know it will be difficult to adjust to the new lifestyle.
